Lancashire Constabulary are once again on the look out for motorists who are committing traffic offences.Today they are on the A59 between Sollom and Rufford.One officer is hidden behind a lampost passing on details to his colleagues further down the road.

I have to admit he is not very well hidden. I am a supporter of police catching criminals but the question is how come he has no ANPR (For tax dodgers, insurance etc) or any visible speed camera? I can only guess he was looking for mobile/ seat-belt offenders or was he just purely guessing a vehicles speed?

may be looking out for "hatched lines" drivers. Enough of them around there

Yes, you often get pushed into them on Kew roundabout because of the a****oles who cut straight across the lanes, like the guy yesterday, who, in his grey people carrier, did this to me then gave me the finger.

Rule 129
You MUST NOT cross or straddle double white lines in normal driving. Exceptions are: if it is safe to do so and you need to enter premises adjoining the carriageway or a side road. In addition, it is permissible to cross the line as necessary and provided the road is clear, to pass a stationary vehicle. Or to overtake a horse, pedal cycle or road maintenance vehicle, only if they are not travelling at speeds greater than 16 km/h (10 mph). You can also cross double white lines when ordered to do so by a policeman in uniform.
